Well said miga.

Thankfully I knew a bit of English when I arrived here many years ago. If it wasn't for the English I'd probably have been a Gaelic speaker. Cheers.

Tut tut LM. Not in the Lounge.

This game is quite addictive and easy to learn. It's been around a long time too. There are various free apps of the game. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mancala http://play-mancala.com/ Has anyone ever played it before?

Nothing dangerous. Crumpled up coloured pieces of paper that went to make the tricolour. Probably Arsenal fans.

Will try that after eating my rice cakes with peanut butter and banana.

They have now haven't they? There's a good chance he wouldn't know or remember all his partners.

They commentator was going spare over of all the stuff being throw at the French goalie. Was there any mention of that on the TV?

We're talking about less than 40 values which already have a plus or minus assigned to them as a result of a reconciliation. However these add up to over ?4,000 in value. By a process of deduction, a plus or a minus can be reversed depending of the reason it is what it is in the first place. With the correct alterations the sum of the numbers will be zero. May be easy to code in VBA if you know how.

Wonder if anyone can tell me if there is a way of doing this? I have a series of values (which could be either negative or positive) that will add up to Zero. However I don?t know which are positive or which are negative. Is there a way of calculating how these numbers being one way or the other will add up to Zero and if there is more than one way of doing it? I?m being lazy here as I should be able to deduce which is a negative or a positive and am just looking for a quicker option.

I'm not going to record it as I find it a bit sick having a programme about the death of George Best. Channel 5.

I have. Very messy though.....

I'm one Irish person who doesn't know what nod and wink is being referred to in the last paragraph.

I'm drooling.......

It's all just words in my view. If he wasn't Irish, JC may have used fat, bald, stupid or anything else you can think of. Even, Northerner, if he was from the North. I expect the guy wants to make some money and he probably will.

Sounds like the OP has chosen to be offended.Fireworks in ED, so what?

Whose trees did they fall from? Blame them.

I never watched Top Gear but I guess any similar language used was not directed towards someone in JC's presence. @ Jeremy

Let sleeping dogs lie you old curtain twitcher.

Why does anyone write they are 'super excited'? Isn't being excited enough? Perhaps it's an extract from a Famous Five book. We had lashings of ginger beer and got super excited. Or maybe not...

Mind you having to wait while a woman looks for something somewhere in her everything but the kitchen sink is in there handbag is enough to make most men grumpy. Not me of course.
